Live TV Breakdown: Hong Kong Stock Commentator Bursts Into Tears at HSBC Plunge

A veteran Hong Kong stock commentator burst into tears during a live television broadcast as she saw HSBC's shares plunge dramatically seconds before the end of Monday's trading.
Agnes Wu's comments on the recent volatility of the banking giant's Hong Kong-listed shares trailed off as she saw its price slump to 33 Hong Kong dollars (4.23 US) after a last-minute sell order, a clip on Cable News showed.


The order almost doubled the size of Monday's fall for shares in HSBC, which ended down 24.1 percent, its largest one-day fall on the Hong Kong bourse.

Wu and the anchor of the show were both wide-eyed and they shouted out the closing price in surprise. She was unable to continue talking and shook her head for a few seconds.

1. Think about this.
We're talking about money.

HK was an island with a moneylust on steroids.

2. She must be very young not to remember the HK crash in the mid 90's.
Most Chinese have very little experience in the stock market and think it goes up forever.
